Lot 1569
1881. PCGS graded Proof 65 Cameo. An issue that is always in demand among collectors, the 1881 Trade dollar has the distinction of having been produced only in the proof format. This fully struck example is an exceptional survivor from an original mintage of just 960 pieces. Just a hint of natural pastel-gold patina can be discerned with close examination. Watery fields support satiny devices, yielding the highly desirable Cameo designation by PCGS. There are no mentionable contact marks on either side, only a vertical scratch on the plastic holder at the center of the obverse that should not be confused as a problem on the coin, itself. Worth a close look and a strong bid. Pop 27; 11 finer, 6 in 66, 2 in 66+, 2 in 67, 1 in 67+. (PCGS # 87061) .
Estimated Value $7,000 - 7,500.
